Music of Giovanni Girolamo Kapsberger
“If Giovanni Girolamo Kapsberger (c. 1580–1651) were alive today, he might be a rock star or an opera composer. He might be a professional socialite who moves in the most elite social circles or a mad scientist…. He would be controversial, difficult, and self-serving, and would surely make some enemies along the way, but he would also inspire and win the hearts of countless people through his music.” View CD booklet
